Ingredients
- 2 1/4 cups flour
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup butter (softened, cut into cubes)
- 2/3 cup buttermilk
- 3 large eggs
- 1 large egg white
- 2 Tablespoons oil
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 1/3 cup Instant Vanilla Pudding Mix (dry)
- 3/4 cup Rainbow sprinkles
Vanilla Frosting:
- 1 cup butter (softened)
- 4 ounces cream cheese (softened)
- 3 1/2 cups powdered sugar (may add 1/2 cup more for stiffer frosting)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 Tablespoons heavy cream or milk (optional)
- 1 cup Rainbow sprinkles (on top of the cake)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a standing mixer, stir together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Beat the butter into the flour mixture, one cube at a time. Continue to beat until it resembles coarse crumbs.
- In a small bowl, whisk together eggs, buttermilk, oil, and vanilla. Add the 1/2 of the egg-milk mixture and oil and beat the batter is light and fluffy. Add remaining egg-milk mixture and vanilla pudding and mix just until combined. Take a spatula and scrape the sides of the bowl. Add rainbow sprinkles and fold into batter.
- Spread into greased (with non-stick cooking spray or butter/flour) 8 or 9-inch cake pans and smooth tops with a spatula. Bake for 16-22 minutes, depending on the depth of pans. If the cake layers are thin, they will cook for less time than the thicker layers.
- Let cakes cool. Run a knife around edge of cake pan and flip over. Frost with vanilla frosting.
Vanilla Frosting:
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together butter and softened cream cheese for 2-3 minutes, scraping the sides of the bowl. Add powdered sugar and vanilla and cream together for several minutes. Add cream or milk, if needed.
- Frost the cake and top with rainbow sprinkles.
